2. G’day Parks Austin Holiday Park
Jimeoin and Georgie Caroll get their swags out for the night before the weather turns bad and they head for a warm cabin in Tamworth.

The crowd has a hilarious night and Jimeoin heads off to Yamba, where Akmal is going to rejoin him.
3. G’day Parks Blue Dolphin Yamba
Jimeoin and Akmal continue their journey in a slick blue 1977 Volkswagen Kombi and visit a holiday park in Yamba.

That evening, the comedians put on a comedy show at the park and next morning celebrate its success by watching the sunrise together.
4. G’day Parks Brisbane Holiday Village
Jimeoin and comedian Michael Dalton (aka Dolly Diamond) visit a holiday park in Brisbane. They take a hot air balloon ride over Brisbane's hinterlands, surf in the park’s wave simulator, go for a skate and meet campers. Before that night’s live show, The Andrews Sisters Tribute Band warm up the crowd, then Dolly and Jimeoin have a show to remember.
5. G’day Parks Hervey Bay Tourist Park
Jimeoin visits historic Maryborough, glimpsing the simpler life he rarely experiences with his busy schedule. At Hervey Bay, Jimeoin is joined by Indigenous comedian Jay Wymarra. They explore nearby Fraser Island by 4WD and plane, explore Hervey Bay's esplanade on bikes, and join an up-close whale watching experience. At the holiday park, local musician Frank Benn warms up the crowd before Jay and Jimeoin deliver their acts.
6. G’day Parks Discovery Park Airlie Beach

Jimeoin is joined by comedian Jacques Barrett. They cruise around the Whitsunday islands, go for a hike, spend a night on the boat and go snorkelling.

8. G’day Parks Noosa Caravan Park
The season finale brings Jimeoin and comedian Emma Zammitt to Noosa. They go for a surf, do yoga, and spend a day on a floating BBQ pontoon. The final live show is at the Land & Sea Brewery where local musos The Barley Shakes are joined by traditional Irish dancers. Singing, laughs and a little luck of the Irish sees Jimeoin wrap up a memorable tour and travels.
